Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray. CM Eknath Shinde called Thackeray an “opportunist” and slammed him for bending in front of “socialists and the Congress”.

During the Dussehra rally at Azad Maidan, CM Eknath Shinde hit out at Uddhav Thackeray's faction for joining hands with socialists and the Congress, instead of being proud of their Hindu identity.
